Reimbursement Plans
that Improve Health Care Quality
The NHIA has developed a series of plans that are
structured to improve the quality of care while keeping costs
under control. The plans offer health care providers incentives
to care for patients’ overall well-being by reimbursing them
based on clinical outcomes. The NHIA phased in this pay-
for-performance system in phases beginning in October 2001
to cover payment for the treatment of cervical cancer, breast
cancer, tuberculosis, diabetes and asthma based on well-
defined clinical criteria. Themanagement of the cervical cancer
program was handed over to the Bureau of Health Promotion
at the start of 2006, but that same year hypertension treated at
western medicine clinics was added to the ailments included
under this pay-for-performance structure. In 2007, hospitals
became eligible to treat hypertension under the plan, and in
2008,
the pay-for-performance tuberculosis plan became
the standard for treatment of the disease. The percentage of
patients being treated under outcome-based plans in recent
years is shown inTable 13.
Two more pay-for-performance plans were added in
January 2010 for schizophrenia and for hepatitis B carriers and
hepatitis C patients, and another was introduced in January
2011
for early chronic kidney disease. Because of the positive
impact of the pay-for-performance plan in treating diabetes, it
was instituted as the standard for all diabetes cases in October
2012.
Hypertension sufferers on outcome-based plans were
often found to suffer from other comorbidities such as diabetes
and chronic kidney disease, and to better integrate care, the
outcome-based program for the treatment of hypertension was
incorporated into the pay-for-performance plans for these other
illnesses beginning in 2013.
